Abstract
A system includes control circuitry for identifying, during operation in a first operating mode wherein electrical power is limited by protection devices, an indicator to enter a second operating mode. The indicator corresponds to power consumption of the electrical system exceeding a power capacity of the electrical system, nearing, achieving, or exceeding a limit. In response to the indicator, the system operates in the second operating mode by retrieving reference information comprising load preferences and limits, and managing one or more loads, sources, or both to modify power consumption, power capacity, or both based on the indicator and based on the reference information. The system communicates with loads or sources, and manages branch circuit using controllable elements to prevent power consumption from exceeding power capacity. The system modifies setpoints, turns devices on or off, schedules device operation or otherwise manages the electrical system based on predetermined preferences.
